It was a fine hit piece by Politico, except for these points: There were at least five major problems with the story: The headline was completely false The subhed was also completely false The opening paragraph was false false false The substance of the piece was missing key exonerating information The article demonstrated confusion about service academy admissions and benefits This is not how an innocent mistake is corrected: Politico stealthily edited the inflammatory headline and lede, after the damage was done. They made changes without adding a note about what was corrected. They didn’t update the piece or add an editor’s note.
